Biography
Ibrahim Sayeed was the older brother of eight other brothers, and a Pakistani; his kunya referred to the fact that his parents lived in Kuwait. Sayeed took on the nom de guerre of Abu Ahmed al-Kuwaiti after his brother, Habeeb Sayeed, had died in 2001. He trained members of Al-Qaeda in computation, as Abu Ahmed was a computer expert. He fought alongside Ammar al-Baluchi, Khabab al-Masri, and Hamza Rabia in Afghanistan during the invasion and fled to Pakistan, but many people thought that he had died when his brother had; they looked exactly alike.

Buying a compound in Abbottabad in Pakistan, Abu Ahmed sheltered Osama bin Laden from the enemies of Al-Qaeda, although the compound was a mile away from Pakistan's equivalent of West Point. In order to contact his family, he used many phone lines across Rawalpindi, and never used the same one twice, or more than five minutes.

Eventually, in 2010, he was tracked down by the CIA and surveillance showed that he lived in the compound among three families. In 2011, the CIA dispatched a team of Navy SEALs (SEAL Team Six) to storm the compound, and he was shot at the doorway after he brandished an AK-47.
